This time of year, I always start getting anxious to hear festive music. One of my favorite ways to incorporate seasonal songs in my home is by listening to Music Choice: Sounds of the Seasons on my TV! They play a wide variety of songs, ad-free, 24/7 during seasonal timeframes. And they start early and keep it going for a little after the holiday passes, which pleases me very much as I like to celebrate the full season, not just the day :-)
Music Choice is available to many different cable TV users, so tune-in if you have Cox Cable, Time Warner, Comcast, Charter, Cablevision, Verizon FiOS, AT&T U-Verse, Grande, Service Electric Cable TV, CenturyLink, or Bright House Networks. I have Cox Cable, so for me,it is on channel 1933. Not quite sure what channel for other users, but I am sure you could easily look it up.
Here is the upcoming music schedule for 2013. Oktoberfest is coming up next, about a month away :-)
Sounds of the Seasons- Special music that plays to celebrate various holidays and seasons. The 2013 schedule includes:
- Mardi Gras (first week of February)
- Valentine's Day (second week of February)
- St. Patrick's Day (third week of March)
- Cinco De Mayo (first week of May)
- Patriotic music (first week of July)
- Christmas in July (third week of July)
- Oktoberfest (late September through October 7)
- Halloween (October 8 to November 1)
- Christmas (runs from November 2 through January 6)
- The Pulse (periods without a specific widely-celebrated holiday such as April, June and August, etc.) <-- For the record, The Pulse is NOT my favorite, LOL
Sure do like the addition of "Christmas In July". We enjoy the seasonal pictures as well. It would be nice to have some patriotic music on Memorial Day & Labor Day too. Thanks for your post. I've added it to my favorites. If nothing festive is playing on "Sounds of the Season" my favorite selection is "Singers & Swing". Love the music and the bits of history that go along with it. The pictures we really enjoy as well. We know and recognize so many artists now. "United We Swing"
ReplyDeleteThank You so much for posting the schedule. I couldn't even find the schedule on the music choice website. I am glad that I found another seasonal enthusiast :) Thank you again and only a few more days until I get to hear all the spooky tunes without having to search for them on YouTube :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting this! I was wondering when the Christmas music would start! Looking forward to Saturday!
ReplyDeleteThe format is very good, but some songs like" Dominic the donkey" and "I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus" should be on Toddler Tunes.
